Lucifer was the Etruscan sun god before the Christians borrowed him to be their devil.

I haven't seen it in years, but Jeopardy used to have a category called "Those Wacky Etruscans".

Etruscan raiders travel single-file to hide their numbers.

"First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

My old favorite British kids' science fiction TV series The Tomorrow People featured one rather bizarre story arc called "A Man for Emily", which featured three humanoid aliens, a woman called The Momma and her grown children, Emily and Elmer. They learned about Earth culture from watching old westerns on TV, so they all spoke in really bad US Southern accents.
They had a device called a "Doozlum Pin", which when stepped on, teleported a person to a set location. It looked liked a large golf tee in the ground.
As I said, it was a weird story arc.

I saw one episode of the Tomorrow People where the girl gets into the bad guy's office by posing as a telephone sanitizer.

I always did like Tomorrow Woman. DC doesn't have nearly enough telekinetics.

I think dirty mobile phones nowadays are a bigger problem.

Do you think people will hand me their smart phone if I tell them that I am a telephone sanitizer?

I know a certain red-head who might take exception to that last remark.

Charlie Brown's great crush, the Little Red-Haired Girl, was based on Donna Johnson, an old friend of Charles Schulz's. Personally, I always thought Charlie Brown secretly preferred Linus.

But could Linus have accepted an ultimatum to choose between his two great loves: dude and blanket?

Would he really have to choose? CB was a pretty understanding fellow.

Yes, but I do wonder about how the blanket would feel about such an unconventional relationship.
The course of true love never runs smooth, etc.

I don't think the blanket would mind. It could cover both Linus and Charlie Brown anyway...

The blanket only demonstrated sentience in one 1965 story arc in which it was openly hostile to Lucy. It seemed to harbor no ill will toward Charlie Brown.
